Part 25: The Decision

"Sleeping over, Yura?"

"If I don't, you will probably sleep through your graduation. Besides, I can help you do your makeup and hair tomorrow"

"Sounds great! Thank you for having thought of everything.. Wife."

Yura chucked her spare pillow at me before heading to the shower rooms. As I sat on my bed and leaned back against the wall, propping the laptop open on my lap, my phone suddenly buzzed.

"Hey."

"Hey you" I sent back.

"Wyd?"

"I was out with friends. We went to a Vietnamese restaurant and had boba then we went to an arcade to play around. Tomorrow's graduation so we wanted to relax a bit before the big day, you know?"

"I see. Come here." His response read.

"*Hugs you from behind* I'm here."

"*Pulls you into my lap, kissing you on the lips.*"

"*Kisses you back, gently wrapping my arms around you to keep you close*" I wanted him here with me and I was happy he was here.

"*Smiles against your lips* That's betterrr."

"How was your day oppa?"

"Could've been better… I just need you."

My heart skipped a beat as I bit my lip. "I'm here now *leans my forehead against yours*"

"Shhh… *gently kisses you, possessively gripping you closer to me.*"

"*Returns your kisses.*"

"*Plays with your long hair, gradually turning the kiss more passionate*"

I jumped as the sound of the doorknob to my dorm room was suddenly turned and creaked open.

"Hey, still up? You know, you really should get to bed earlier. Tomorrow is an early morning."

"Yes, I will. Thanks mom." I smirked as Yura closed the door and climbed into the spare bed.

"Good night Kagome." She murmured as she pulled the blankets around her and shut off the desk lamp she was closest to.

"Good night Yura." I too closed off my bedside lamp, laying down on my bed and typing back a reply to Inuyasha. "*Kisses you back as passionately.*"

"*Gently kisses your neck*"

I thought about it, typing and then erasing and then retyping "*tilts my head to the side for you.*"

"*Kisses, gently biting down your neck* stay with me tonight?"

Lost for words but knowing what I wanted, I replied, "*nods* mhm."

"*Carries you to your bed, laying you down and staring into your eyes* I love you babe."

"*Reaching out, I clasped my right hand over your cheek* I love you too. I'm here… I won't run from you."

"You're sure this time?"

I knew he was worried about that but I had stopped running long ago. I found the reason to why I was running in the first place. I was worried about screw ups. I was worried something would go wrong and I wouldn't be able to repair our relationship. I was worried that I could damage him further if something did go wrong and yet I was worried that by denying everything, that I would be speeding up the inevitable. In truth, I was very well aware that it wasn't just us two. We both had families, friends, and so much more that we could be messing with if we were wrong. However, I couldn't deny my own feelings anymore and no one else mattered.

"Yes *tugs you closer by your shirt* absolutely positive."

"*Kisses your forehead then along your collarbone, groping your ass* finally… All mine."

Author's Note: To all my readers, fans and anonymous followers, thank you all so much for the support you have shown toward this series. I have been on and off here at fanfiction, mainly choosing to focus on my real life responsibilities but it is time now that I have to announce: the next chapter will be the very last one. Again, thank you all so much for all the love and support this community has shown me and this series! I did not expect so much people to have read this story but with over around 4,600 views since I had first published in July 15 2016 and probably counting by the last chapter, I have to say that all this has exceeded my expectations above and beyond. Thank you all so much and please embark with me once more toward the final chapter to this series.
